Comedian Michael V said that GMA 7 had to stop airing his sitcom “Pepito Manaloto” after two years because the members of its production team had already run out of funny ideas to feature on the show.
Calixto Reyes, accountant: “The death of Dolphy made me realize how wonderful a person Zsa Zsa Padilla, his partner for 23 years, is. I watched her speech during the necrological rites, and I was blown away by her grace, honesty, poise, intelligence and love for the comedy king.
Perhaps it’s true that the marriage of Controversial Celebrity and Long-Suffering Partner is in trouble.
Pretty Starlet keeps denying that she and Hunky Actor are a couple. PS, however, had been spotted waltzing in and out of HA’s condo unit building by kibitzers. In another instance, PS visited the set of HA’s latest project.
FOR many years now, the comedy team of Ogie Alcasid and Michael V has proven itself as a bankable draw in a number of hit programs, including some “smorgasbord” comedy and game shows.
No, we’re not referring to those two divas who belted out that earth-shaking duet during the “American Idol” finale last month. Ogie Alcasid (right) assumes the role of petite Jessica ShineShoes and Michael V does a mean Jennifer Holligay impersonation in tonight’s episode of “Pare & Pare” on GMA 7. The two comedians lip-synched “And I’m Telling You (I’m Not Going).” They’re threatening the entire world to love them as well. Or else.
IN Philippine showbiz, everyone seems to be trying to out-misbehave each other. However, there are a few “inspirational” celebrities out there who people still have a genuine admiration for.
Comedian Michael V was unperturbed when asked about the hottest issue in Show Town—the supposed coming merger of his home network GMA 7 and his former station TV5.
RAMON Solis, televiewer: “The comic tandem of Ogie Alcasid and Michael V is one reason why I watch ‘Bubble Gang.’ They’re so natural, and their chemistry amazes me—hindi sila nagsasapawan, which is common among comedians. They’re even more effective and funnier than their gay counterparts when they cross-dress!
